Hi! I wanted to point out a few inconsistencies in the LilyDoc. Here come
the bullet points:


   - In Learning Manual > 5.4.2 Within-staff objects > The direction
   property, in the list of predefined \objectDown \objectUp \objectNeutral
   commands, every command in the “Revert” column is \*Neutral, except for the
   command for arpeggio arrows, which is \arpeggioNormal. Please change it to
   \arpeggioArrowNeutral to match every other command. Additionally, it might
   be best to change the \arpeggioArrowDown and \arpeggioArrowUp commands to
   simply \arpeggioDown and \arpeggioUp respectively, in which case the
   reverting command should become \arpeggioNeutral to match them

Highlighting inconsistencies:

   - Nowhere in the Notation Reference does the TextMark object get
   highlighted, and neither does Text_mark_engraver
   - incipit-width (\layout variable) doesn't get highlighted in its single
   appearance in NotRef 2.9.6 Working with ancient music – scenarios and
   solutions > Incipits, though this one might be on purpose?
   - It's unclear if pdftitle (\header var) should be highlighted or not
   (quite sure you only see it  the one single time in NotRef 3.3.3 Creating
   output file metadata)
   - I don't think annotate-spacing (\paper var) gets mentioned in the
   lists of \paper variables in NotRef 4.1 Page Layout, only in 4.6.1
   Displaying spacing. This one might also be intentional.

I remember seeing other inconsistencies in NotRef, but I'll have to get
back to you on that.

Finally, I'd like to ask why some functions are simply Not There in the
internals reference?? where are x11-color and rgb-color? why can I not find
magstep in the scheme function list? IntRef A.1 concept index is completely
empty, was it supposed to go there? where did make-pango-font-tree go :(
really it only caused me problems because I'm writing a syntax file for
LilyPond and I'm not sure what to highlight lmao (which is also the reason
I've been SCOURING the LilyDoc lately). this is a real genuine question I
really feel like I'm missing something please

Many thanks!
Have a good day/night,
Luise
